Experimental Data
The solubility of octane in water at 20°C was reported to be x1 ≈ 2 × 10-7.
The corresponding mass percent calculated by the compiler is about 0.0001 g(1)/100 g sln.
The solubility of water in octane at 20°C was reported to be x2 = 4.3 × 10-4.
The corresponding mass percent calculated by the compiler is 0.007 g(2)/100 g sln.
